They contend that while engaged in the
transportation OF cattle they are as
much employees of TIE road as though
their names were Oh the payroll, for
Otherwise substitutes would have to be
paid by the road, and the expenses
included in the shipping rate.
EastGn reads. however, denied their
patrons this privilege, with the result of
driving from this market some of the
LEADING buyers, who transferred their
orders to Chicago, where they had the
benefit Of the Grand Trunk cut-rate.
In self.defence the Indianapolis and
St Louis returned to the pass system

Tho Visit to Steel.on


The magnitude of the preparations
at steelton for the production and
manufacture OF steel produced strong
impression upon the party of gentle
men that visited that place on Satur-
day. On the area of 1000 acres be-
longing 10 the company will be gath
cred, it is estimated, in five years a
population of %, coo engaged in wealth
creating industries. The building of
steel ships and ironclads, with their
machinery and equipment, will give
ample employment TO the new plant
when completed, making Baltimore
the Glasgow, it Is hoped, of the ship
building business OF this couatry.
Senator Frye was amazed at the ex-
tent of the Steelton works, actual and
prospective, and, despite their dis
agreement as to the policy of protec-
tion, the other Senators concurred in
the view that the new city has an i'm
mense future. Senator Vest thought
that the West needed another outlet,
and it ought to be through Baltimore.
His remarks about the Chesapeake
and Delaware free ship canal ought to
encourage the friends Of that enter
prise to 20 to work to induce Congress
to complete it. Our Senators and Rep.
resenlatives at Washington cannot bet
ter employ their time this winner than
in instructing their colleagues upon
the merits OF the ship canal.
